MOUNTAIN IN MY WAY

STARTED THE DAY I TOOK MY FIRST BREATH
LIFE’S LONG JOURNEY THAT WILL END WITH MY DEATH
THIS ARDUOUS CLIMB FULL OF MANY POTHOLES
ALL DESIGNED TO HINDER ME REACHING MY GOALS

(CHORUS)

THE TRUTH BECOMES CLEARER EVERY STEP I TAKE
GOT TO BATTLE ON DESPITE HOW MY BONES ACHE
I KNOW IT’S GONNA TAKE TILL MY DYING DAY
TO REACH THE SUMMIT OF THIS MOUNTAIN IN MY WAY

THE BATTLES GOT TOUGHER AS I GREW OLDER
LIFE’S WEIGHT CUTTING DEEPER INTO MY SHOULDERS
THERE’LL BE TIMES OF LAUGHTER TO KEEP ME AMUSED
OBSTACLES TO TRIP ON TO GET MY SKIN CUT AND BRUISED

(CHORUS)

SO I KEEP PUSHING ON
I KNOW I MUST STRIVE
YEH I KEEP PUSHING ON
ONLY WAY TO SURVIVE

(SOLO)

THERE’S A BRAND NEW CHALLENGE OVER EVERY RISE
THE EXPANSE OF IT SPREADS OUT BEFORE MY EYES
GUESS NOW’S THE TIME TO PULL ON MY WALKING BOOTS
START SEEKING OUT MY LIFE DOWN TO THE GRASSROOTS

(CHORUS)

REACH THE SUMMIT OF THIS MOUNTAIN IN MY WAY
KEEP CLIMBING THIS MOUNTAIN IN MY WAY
YEH, YEH THIS MOUNTAIN IN MY WAY
